I told the Captain when she come aboard that I didn't 'ave much opinion of her, and now he'll see how it h'is. I'm h'ashamed that such a thing should 'appen on the 'Spartacus, ma'am, I h'am, h'indeed. H'it never would 'ave ben so h'under h'Eliza, ma'am, she's the one that went h'off and got herself married the trip before last, when this person came to take her place."
"Now, now! I can't understand a word. Who are you?" "H'Allan, mistress." "You say some one is ill?" "Oh yes, he is very h'ill h'indeed, mistress h'all covered with blood and his poor 'ands h'all cut." "Who ?" "And his 'ead oh, Lard! His 'ead is cut, too, and he suffers a fever." "Mr. h'Auntony " "Anthony!" Mrs. Cortlandt started. "What has happened? Quick!"
"Never such a dream as this, boss. It was very vivid." "I've got no money." Allan folded the paper disconsolately and thrust it into his pocket. "It is fartunate h'indeed," said he, "that you will be working soon, Master h'Auntony. And those P. R. R. was very fartunate also for getting you to h'accept a position, very fartunate h'indeed." "Do you think I will raise the standard of efficiency?"
Oh, it's great to be in love!" "Without doubt, sar." "She's a corker, isn't she?" "I do not know as to that," Allan demurred. "What may be a carker?" "I mean she's beautiful." "Oh, h'indeed so! And her h'eyes like h'ink spots, as you say." "Was she wearing a denim dress when you saw her?" "Yes, yes," eagerly agreed the negro. "Oh, there is no mistake. It was a red dress." "No, it wasn't.
"I don't never let my ladies lie in their berths a moment longer than there is need of. I h'always gets them on deck as soon as possible to get the h'air. It's the best medicine you can 'ave, ma'am, the fresh h'air; h'indeed it h'is." Stewardesses are all-powerful on board ship, and Mrs. Barrett was so persuasive as well as positive that it was not possible to resist her.
As they emerged upon the sidewalk the younger one flashed a glance at the men opposite, and Kirk saw that she was a mulatto evidently a housemaid. His eager eyes flew back to the entrance. Allan hissed at him: "Yonder goes! Quick, or you will be losing she." "Where?" "There! The young female in w'ite. It is h'indeed the Senorita Torres."
It is fartunate h'indeed that you consented to run her this time." "In a hurry to get to Colon?" "Quite so. It is h'impartant that I h'arrive promptly to-day. I have business h'affairs." His countenance assumed tortured lines as he endeavored to maintain his gravity, then failing in his attempt, he burst suddenly into a gale of merriment that sent forth a shower of peanuts and lemon candy.
She is coming presently to help me up; and when Amy wakes, won't you let her be dressed, and I will take care of her while Mrs. Barrett attends to you." "I don't think I can be dressed," sighed poor Mrs. Ashe. "I feel as if I should just lie here till we get to Liverpool." "Oh no, h'indeed, mum, no, you won't," put in Mrs. Barrett, who at that moment appeared, gruel-cup in hand.
"Oh no, h'indeed, ma'am, it's a very fine day, not bright, ma'am, but very dry," was the answer. Katy couldn't imagine what the maid meant, when she peeped between the curtains and saw a thick dull mist lying over everything, and the pavements opposite her window shining with wet.
